home

well, i'm in the states for a couple weeks of leave. this means i may or may not be writing much. i'm leaning toward the no option at this point as i doubt people want to hear about what i'm doing at home. anyway, i'm going to get back to enjoying my free time. later.

planes and such

so i finally got a day off...yay! the break has been fantastic; just getting to sleep in has been nice. anyway, this is the last day off i'm going to have before i begin my travel back for R&R. there are a few more days of work between now and then, but they shouldn't be too horrible.

i've been trying to teach my 'radio guy' everything he needs to do while i'm gone. we'll see how much he retains.

once i hit the airport in atlanta, the clock on my leave starts; i get 14 days. i plan on seeing as many friends in that time as possible. when i'm not seeing friends, i'm going to do absolutely nothing. it will be fun.

it'll be nice to be somewhere that's not so hot too. the last few weeks the temperature has been around 105. heat indexes have been in the 120s. you know it's hot when breezes make you hotter instead of cooler.

anyway, i'm going to get back to my day off. i might blog while i'm traveling if i can find an internet connection. if you don't hear anything from me, it's because i haven't found one. later.

busy

i'd gotten used to posting something on my days off. well...the last time i had a day off was the last time i posted nearly a month ago. actually, i still haven't had a day off; i'm writing this over lunch. this isn't cause for concern though. as i've told people before, no news is good news. if something happens to me, the army (and the red cross) will notify someone within 24 hours.

anyway, on to the reason i'm taking a quick break from my lunch... my leave is coming up soon. exact dates are impossible to predict, but i expect to be home around the 20th (very rough estimate). i'll be sure to call someone from the airport in atlanta with more detailed information. until i get there though, i have no idea when i'll get home.

well...i've gotta get back to work. write you later.
